Hi all, I've got one more LOTV card to share this week. I had colored up this image a few weeks ago, and now have turned into a card to send to my mom. She and I are both tea lovers, and I've discovered a new brand of herbal tea that I love. So I'm going to mail her this card with a box of that tea for her to enjoy as well! If you're interested, I'll post the link to purchase the tea.

My card is a 5x5 square card. The image panel is slightly over 4' squared and then I cute a pink stitched square and mounted on a 5x5 piece of striped blue paper! The image was Copic colored.

Thanks so much for stopping, if you're interested in purchasing this images I've provided a link below!

I'm not always a huge fan of Chamomile, but this brand is exceptional as it has a hint of lemongrass and mint! Click on the link below, but there are many websites to order from if you search the name!

Hi all, a few weekends ago I got together with a friend and we sat and colored for hours. I'm such a fan of digi stamps and I've got an extensive collection of them, that embarrassingly I've not colored many of! LOTV is not a new company to me, but they do now have an Etsy shop that I've linked up below.

This image is called Rosie with Cake. I was going for a bold vintage look here and the image takes front and center. I've actually got a few more images colored up, so hopefully I'll have time soon to turn them into cards. I love many digi brands but LOTV is a favorite!

Thanks for stopping by, it means so much to me! I hope wherever you are reading this from, you are happy and healthy!

Hey Newton's Nook Designs fans, have we reached day 4 of the February release already? This time always goes so fast, but that means tomorrow, you'll find all these great new products in the shop!

So for my first card features "Spring Pile Up", this is such a fun little trio to color, isn't that sheep carrying his Easter basket so sweet, then a bunny holding tulips with a chick on his head! I just smile every time I look at this set! The lovely aqua colored layer was diecut from the Framewok Die Set and the plaid paper is by Lawn Fawn.

My second card features "Puppy Pals"! I'm such a dog lover and it makes me happy creating cards with cute pups like these two sharing a stick! I added a few chicks onto their heads from the Newton's Peeps set (also in this release, featured yesterday). The postage die is from the Frameworks Die Set and the background I stenciled using the brand new Bokeh Stencil! (It's a 2 piece stencil and it's amazing! I cannot wait to create more backgrounds with it!)

Hi all, it's day 2 of the February release at Newton's Nook Designs and today we're featuring this beautiful stamp/die set, Woodland Spring. I literally gasped when I saw this set for the first time. I'm in love with the critters wearing crowns of floral!

I colored up the deer for this project, but I can't wait to color the rest very soon for extra spring cards! I added my hill using the Land Borders set. And do you see that subtle background? That's actually one of the brand new stencils that will be available this Friday, called Bold Blooms. I think it makes a most beautiful background for these woodland critters!

Hi all! It's day 1 of the February release here at Newton's Nook Designs. I am so excited for you to see all the new product throughout this week. It will be in the shop this coming Friday morning!

So for starters, we've got the stamp/die set, Loads of Blooms. I adore all 3 images, but this giant bunch of tulips really called out to me immediately, so I had to color it right away and cut them out with coordinating dies. The banner is from the Frames and Flags die set and the little polka dotted flowers comes from a brand new die set, keep scrolling to see it!

So check out this new die set, Flower Trio! I love, love, love this! I had so much fun cutting out the flowers and greenery and then assembling in a climbing vine up the side of my stitched panel I cut using Frames and Flags Die Set and the die cut sentiment is a little sneak peek of a set coming out later this week! If you're like me, you love working with flowers and it's fun to have flowers to use as an accent on cards and gifts!

In addition to these new stamps/dies, we've also got 2 new stencils, that I'll be featuring later this week. But I'll post them here so you can see them! Bokeh and Bold Blooms!!!

Just a quick blog post, I've not been around much this last month. I've been busy doing other life things, so it felt really good sitting and coloring this SWEET little free digi from Bugaboo this week. I've posted the image and link to their shop, make sure to pick this up before Friday. (However if you miss it, there will be another cute freebie, as each week they change).

So this is just a little Valentine that I'm popping in the mail for someone very special! I followed the sketch challenge at Bugaboo which I'll link for you below.

Hello everyone, I'm here today with a cute card I made for someone special. I'm popping this in the mail to my friend for Valentine's Day!

I started by inking the globe shape using an A2 sized piece of paper that I cut the shape out, then layered it over my cardstock and sponged on Shaded Lilac in an ombre look, darker at the bottom and light at the top.

I copic colored and die cut using coordinating dies, the images from Sending Hugs. The amazing thing about the coordinating dies is that it cuts out the arms and so you can slide the little accessories in, like the wine, flowers or gift box.

I added a red balloon from the Fabulous Frenchies stamp set too. To finish it off, I added some hearts and then stamped the sentiment below.

Thanks so much for stopping today, make sure you visit the store and check out these super cute stamp and die sets!
